The Yale ERP15-20VT electric counterbalanced forklift combines a compact three-wheel design with front-wheel drive to support material handling in confined working areas. Its manoeuvrability makes it suitable for operations involving narrow aisles, congested goods-in and goods-out areas, warehouse cross-docking and manufacturing environments.
The VT Series is designed for medium- to heavy-duty applications, with performance settings that allow businesses to select an operating mode suited to their work requirements.
The forklift offers HiP (High Performance) and ECO-eLo (Energy Low) settings. HiP is designed for higher performance, while ECO-eLo prioritises lower energy consumption. The series also incorporates Yale’s e-Balance approach to balancing energy efficiency and productivity.
The operator compartment is designed to accommodate operators of different heights. Features include an infinitely adjustable steering column, an optional memory-tilt function, a heads-up display and an adjustable armrest with integrated mini-lever controls.
The heads-up display presents operating information within the operator’s field of vision. Integrated controls help keep key functions accessible during handling operations.
The ERP15-20VT range includes short, medium and long wheelbase configurations, along with battery options to suit different operating patterns and duty requirements. The appropriate configuration depends on the required load capacity, available working space, operating schedule and handling application.
